Picks in Hamburg: Mike Tyson picks Klitschko, Lennox Lewis picks Haye

Here are 16 picks from The Telegraph on the David Haye v Wladimir Klitschko heavyweight unification fight in Hamburg tonight.

DIVIDED LOYALTIES -EIGHT PICK HAYE, EIGHT PICK KLITSCHKO
�
FOR HAYE:
�
Lennox Lewis, former undisputed world heavyweight champion
If you look at everything, Wladimir is supposed to win. My heart though goes with David Haye by a knockout.
Ricky Hatton, former world champion
I think David Haye is going to go out there and shock everyone by knocking Klitschko out.�
�
Joe Calzaghe, former world champion
Haye has the power of a heavyweight and the speed of a middleweight. He has the tools to defeat Klitschko, and I think he will.
�
Freddie Roach, trainer
The key to beating someone like Wlad is to take his confidence away straightaway. Haye can do that with his power. Haye by KO or TKO.
�
Amir Khan, world champion
I think Haye could shock Klitschko – if he's smart and jumps on him early, and hurts him. But if Haye lets Klitschko settle in and work behind his jab, the fight will be hard work. Haye to catch and stop Klitschko.
�
Carl Froch, world champion
David is in the shape of his life, well, has confidence and speed, he’s a warrior and he knows he has the punches to do the job. I think he’ll smash Klitschko and stop him.
�
Bernard Hopkins
Haye will knock out both brothers. I'm not impressed with those guys. They've got the height and good records and a Hall of Fame trainer in Emanuel Steward, but otherwise they're ordinary.
�
Barry McGuigan, former world champion
I have a gut feeling that Haye’s speed will enable him to beat Klitschko to the punch. Haye wins by KO.�
�
FOR KLITSCHKO:
�
Mike Tyson, former world heavyweight champion
I like David Haye, but I think Wladimir Klitschko is too superior and too strong. Klitschko, a great champion, should wipe him out. I could be wrong, but Wladimir should beat him.
�
Bob Arum, promoter
Emanuel Steward has made Klitschko a much better fighter. Because he’s chinny he’s a safety-first fighter. That’s why he’s boring. Haye is chinny, too. Klitschko is the bigger, stronger guy, and technically very good. Klitschko wins.
�
Frank Warren, promoter
Klitschko is just too big for Haye. Haye says before every fight he's going to have a tear-up, but he never does. He ran and ran and ran from Nikolai Valuev until the last round. He’ll catch him and stop him inside the distance.
�
Ross Puritty (defeated Klitschko)
Wlad will win simply because he’s bigger, stronger and more experienced. I predict a 9th round TKO for Wlad.
�
Carl Thompson (defeated Haye)
I’d love to say David Haye win but on paper, Klitschko wins. As a heavyweight, he has competed at a higher level.�
�
Floyd Mayweather Snr, trainer
Haye’s not big enough. He has the speed, he moves around well, but somewhere along the line he’s gonna get caught. Klitschko will catch him and knock him out.
�
Bert Sugar, Boxing Historian
Haye’s only way of winning is striking early, by round three. Klitschko knows that. If he gets the jab going, it will be the giant all night long.
�
James DeGale, Olympic middleweight gold medallist
Out in Hamburg, against one of the Klitschkos, it's a difficult task for Haye. Being British, I hope he can go out there and unify the division. But I see Klitschko knocking him out late on.
